Kind of. My own business will probably needs to hire a tech sometime in the next six months. Ideally someone technically inclined with a steady hand (who can be trained to solder connectors onto cables, etc.)

Oh, the arctic exploration stuff? My old employer is Aurora Geoscience -- they have a careers page. There are others like them, depending on your citizenship and location. Many of these companies will hire labourers and semi-skilled technicians who want the lifestyle. You won't get paid a lot -- but it's kind of like the military experience without the guns and you come out knowing how to do a lot of shit. A good life experience. :)

I wish I had known about that when I was younger. I would have done that instead of the military.
